Description
Perforated Sheets are created by punching regular flat sheets with a determined pattern for cosmetic or usability reasons.
Perforated sheets are often used in applications where the passing of water or air is crucial, like ventilation or filtering. Due to the punched pattern, these sheets are usually very light and thin.
Perforated metal comes in mild steel, galvanised, aluminium or stainless steel.
The sheets are 2440mm x 1220mm and come in a variety of thicknesses and hole sizes. The perforations can come in round, square, slotted, hex or a special pattern.

For some time now the perforated metal sheet has been standard fare in many commercial developments. As well as adding a design element to the buildings, there are also many other benefits to using perforated metal sheets. Now they are gaining popularity in residential developments and builds as well.

Every homeowner is looking for a point of difference for their home. It’s easy to achieve when building a new home as you have a blank canvas and together with your architect you can blow the neighbourhood away. It’s when you are trying to spruce up the home that you have owned for many years that the perforated metal sheet can really show its versatility.
Facades
Facades are an easy way to give your home a facelift. There are not many new residential designs that don’t include a façade of some sort on the house. As well as a striking detail for your home, facades can also provide shade, protection, and privacy. Having your façade custom-designed to match features inside your home is also a great way to create connectivity between spaces.
